Secrets From 95-Year-Old Record-Breaker

Dr. Al SearsResearchers from around the world are fascinated by Olga. They want to know what gave this “Incredible Flying Nonagenarian” the energy, strength and stamina to keep winning.

She’s a track and field legend who sprinted, jumped and threw the javelin. By the time Olga Kotelko finally stopped competing — at age 95 — she’d won more than 750 gold medals.

And shattered more than 30 world records, including 17 in the 90 to 95 age group. Turns out the Secret is her flawless mitochondria…

I’ve been telling you for years the important role your mitochondria plays in staving off the diseases of aging. Unfortunately, modern science has lagged way behind and is just beginning to understand this.

Mitochondria are the tiny power plants that act like a battery in your body. They provide the energy your cells need to function.

The problem is that as you age, your mitochondria start to die off — and those that remain become weaker.

Not only do you lose the stamina and vitality you had when you were young, you also become susceptible to the long list of chronic diseases we associate with aging.

That’s because your mitochondria control your body’s master energy system, powering every function and organ in your body.

Mitochondria Research

Research shows that damaged mitochondria can lead to:

  • Stroke
  • Heart disease
  • Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and ALS
  • Diabetes
  • Chronic fatigue syndrome
  • Multisystem organ failure

The Mitochondria ResearcH Society reports that 50 million U.S. adults are suffering from health problems in which mitochondria dysfunction is directly involved.1

To keep power plants operating at full function, I recommend that my patients supercharge their mitochondria with CoQ10. I call it the “jet fuel” that powers your cells’ battery packs. CoQ10 sparks your aging mitochondria to make more energy. It also acts as a potent free radical scavenger. It soaks up oxidized molecules before they can cause damage.

Mitochondria Need The Correct Fuel

Find clean organ meats from free-range cattle

When cells run out of CoQ10, mitochondria can’t produce enough energy to meet your body’s demands.

And when stockpiles run low, mitochondria are less efficient and they may produce a much less powerful fuel.

Over time, running your body on this cheap fuel takes its toll, dAmaging the mitochondria and contributing fatigue, weakness and eventually, disease.

The only good food source for CoQ10 is the organs of free-range cattle and wild game. But we don’t eat them anymore. The closest thing you’ll find is grass-fed meat. It has much more CoQ10 than grain-fed meat does.

But you’ll never get enough through food alone. That’s why I recommend you take at least 50 mg of the ubiquinol form of CoQ10 daily. Ubiquinol is the form that already has the electrons your body uses for energy. And it’s eight times more powerful than the old form, ubiquinone.

Unfortunately, CoQ10 isn’t enough… Especially as we age.

That’s because as we age, our mitochondria begin to malfunction and die off. So the key to staying young and healthy is making MORE mitochondria that are healthy enough to produce energy.

And that requires PQQ.

PQQ is a coenzyme like CoQ10. It acts like the spark plug inside your cells to make new mitochondria. Then CoQ10 helps each individual mitochondria make more eneRgy.

Researchers at the University of California at Davis fed mice a diet supplemented with PQQ, and they grew a staggering number of new mitochondria in just eight weeks.2

PQQ is also a potent antioxidant that neutralizes dangerous free radicals. In other animal studies, PQQ helped heart muscle cells heal damage from oxidative stress.3

Turbocharge Your Energy Cells in THREE Easy Steps

This amazing nutrient can triple your energy in only a few days. Here’s how to get what you need:

1. Get a little from food

Your body can’t produce PQQ. But you can get some from foods like kiwi, green peppers, carrots and cabbage. Each serving has 2 mcg to 3 mcg. One cup of green tea has twice that amount.

2. Then supplement

But it’s still not enough so I recommend supPlementing. Studies using 10 mg to 20 mg a day of PQQ provide the best results. Most supplements sold have just a tiny fraction of that amount. So check the label carefully. Take your PQQ first thing in the morning for best results. And don’t forget to take your PQQ with CoQ10 — not in place of it. CoQ10 is still critical. It helps all your mitochondria — the new and the old — pump out more energy.

3. Finally, pump up your mitochondria with PACE

A brand-new study found that just two minutes of intense exercise — like the sprints that Olga did — turbocharged a person’s existing mitochondria — and generated healthy NEW mitochondria cells.4

PACE stands for Progressively Accelerating Cardiopulmonary Exertion. It’s a short, intense workout you do in just 12 minutes. And it’s safe for any age group. It doesn’t matter if you’re out of shape right now. You can start out easy, at your own level. Gradually, you increase your intensity as each move becomes easier and easier for you.
